"Demon King, I didn't mean to, I just ......," the boy said in a slurred, only fearing that Yue Ming would be furious because of it.

"At the beginning of Nian, even if you don't want to say more, with your identity, I can understand the general situation. You're his man, and you're following me as his instructions, aren't you? Yue Ming looked at Nian Chu's slightly pale face, "But, I just can't figure it out, what is his purpose in letting you follow me at this time?" ”

"I, I can't say." Nian Chu gritted his teeth and replied. Although he is a little timid on weekdays, he understands that he must not confess Lin Chumo, the instigator behind the scenes.

"I've always been the best person to speak, and since you don't want to say it, then I won't force you." Yue Ming said with a smile, "So, let me guess, he asked you to follow me at this time, probably to understand the progress of the fire in the temple this time, right?" However, this matter has nothing to do with you, so why should he be in such a hurry to find out more? I don't see that your young master is still a person who worries about the country and the people. ”

"Young Master Lin said, he, he also wants to share some troubles for you. He, he knew that the Demon Queen had fallen from the oil on the ground, so he asked me to ask you about her and see if he could help. Nian Chu was in a hurry to find an excuse for Lin Chumo.

"Oh, I see, it's rare for him to have this heart." Yue Ming's eyes tightened suddenly, "But I really don't know, how do you know that my mother slipped and fell because of the oil on the ground, I have never said this." In order not to cause more people to be frightened, he never made the real cause of the fire public, but how did Nian Chu know that there was oil on the ground?

"I, I ......" Nian Chu never imagined that the loophole in his sentence would cause doubt.

Yue Ming didn't expect that what he thought he had no clue about would have a new direction because of Nian Chu's words. After some speculation before, he was ready to exclude Lin Chumo from the incident, but now, looking at the panicked look of the young man in front of him, he decided to make another plan.

"Nian Chu." Yue Ming put away his smile, and his face sank, "So far, are you still unwilling to tell the truth?" I can't understand what kind of mind your young master has, what else do you have to hide? ”

Nian Chu has always been timid, but now that he sees through everything, he knows that there is no chance to hide. At the moment, he can only beg to open up the nets and spare him the death penalty.

"The oil in the ancient hall was asked by Young Master Lin Chumo to sprinkle it...... Nian Chu explained in a panic, "However, I didn't want to sprinkle that much, but it may have been accidentally spilled too much, which caused this fire...... I really didn't mean to......"

"I see, but the ancient hall is heavily guarded, how did you get in alone?" Yue Ming asked.

"The young master, when there was no one in the hall in the evening, took a lot of food and distributed it to the surrounding guards, and gathered them together. Nian Chu whispered.

Yue Ming understood everything at this time, he knew that Lin Chumo was not so kind, and he went to send food and drink to others, it turned out to be this purpose. However, his plan was so good that he almost hid it.

Nian Chu saw Yue Ming's thoughtful appearance, and begged: "Demon King, for the sake of me telling the truth, can you open the net and forgive my mistakes?" I originally just wanted to sprinkle a little bit to cause a little flame, cause a little turmoil, and make An Lengyao ugly due to poor arrangement, but I didn't think it would become like this. ”

"What you said is extremely light, do you still use me to teach you the rules of the demon world? Do you know how many people have been affected by this fire, how can I forgive you so much? Yue Ming asked rhetorically.

"Please spare me this time, okay? I don't want to die, I really don't want to ......" Nian Chu pleaded bitterly.

Seeing his look of fear and despair, Yue Ming's heart softened, and he couldn't help but sigh. The young man in front of him didn't have to be involved in such a thing, but because of Lin Chumo's order, he had to do such a thing. In fact, in the final analysis, Nian Chu is also a victim.

Yue meditated for a moment and said to Nian Chu, "If you promise me one thing, I can spare you the death penalty." ”

"I promise, promise!" Nian Chu nodded hurriedly as if he had found a life-saving straw.

"Early tomorrow morning, I want you to take Lin Chumo to the Demon Palace, confront him face to face, and explain the cause and effect of this incident in front of everyone, can you do it?" Yue Ming asked. If you want to clear An Lengyao's name, this is really a good opportunity. Moreover, it happened to let her clearly recognize Lin Chumo's true face in front of her mother.

Nian Chu pondered for a moment, and finally, he nodded and replied, "Okay." ”

At this time, the sky was already dark, and in the dim light, Yue smiled lightly.

However, not far from the stone, a dark shadow flew by and disappeared into the darkness......

"What did you say?" Lin Chumo asked loudly. "What did they talk about?"

Yutian lowered his voice and replied: "Young master, I just saw the Demon King and Nian Chuyi walking into the stone forest from a distance, and after a long time, the two walked out together. As for what they talked about, I don't know. I didn't dare to follow up for fear of being discovered. ”

Lin Chumo slapped the table in front of him fiercely: "At the beginning of this thought, there is not enough success, and there are more failures." I've messed up the things I've given him a few times. I'm just worried he'll tell the whole story. "Seeing that his plan is about to be achieved, it is clear that he has enough reasons to bring down An Lengyao, but now I am afraid that the situation has changed.

"Young master, what should we do now?" Asked on a rainy day.

Lin Chumo didn't expect it to happen so suddenly, his heart was also full of panic, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while. So, he waved his hand: "You go out first, I'll think about it alone." ”

"Yes." Rainy said and turned around and walked out of the house.

Lin Chumo was irritable, he thought that even if Nian Chu didn't reveal any truth, but with Yue Ming's ability, he could detect one or two nine times out of ten. Nian Chu participated in this matter and was clear about the process. If Yue Ming wants to find out the news, it is best to use this person as a clue.

"If I had known this, I wouldn't have used him in the first place." Lin Chumo said sharply.

"But there's no turning back now." A deep voice came.

Lin Chumo was startled, he raised his head and saw a man dressed in black standing by the windowsill, the window next to him was open, and he must have come in from there. The man wore a silver mask on his face, obscuring most of his face. But judging from his slender figure, this is probably also a handsome man.

"Who are you?" Lin Chumo asked.

The man slowly walked towards Lin Chumo and said, "You don't have to worry about this, you just need to understand that I am not your enemy." On the contrary, maybe I can help you, and that's enough. ”

"Why should I trust you?" Lin Chumo snorted coldly, "Who knows if you're trying to achieve your goals?" ”

The corners of the man's uncovered mouth curled slightly, and he said unhurriedly: "You're right, I have no evidence, and I really can't convince you of me." But, now that you have a choice? Nian Chu revealed the rumors, and Yue Ming had taken the lead. Right now, you're on your own, plus a group of henchmen who can't hold the scene...... I guess I don't need to explain any more, right? ”

Lin Chumo was stunned, he had to admit that with him alone, he really had no way to turn the tide.

Seeing that Lin Chumo was moved by his words, the man took the opportunity to continue: "Besides, for so many years, your focus has always been only on that An Lengyao. A mere lowly person is really not worth your trouble. Putting yourself in trouble now because of him is not a good deal. ”

"But I can't be angry, why does he have no identity background here, and he looks submissive, but he can also gain the trust and friendship of the demon king. And I have the military power passed down by my father and a prominent family background, but Yue Ming has never regarded me as a friend. Lin Chumo said indignantly.

The man chuckled lightly and spoke, "After all, you just want to have more glory, in that case, why don't you just set up your own door and have your own supreme power?" ”

Lin Chumo was taken aback, and then he reacted, this person meant to call him king.

"You, what did you say? I've never thought of anything wrong! You don't want to talk nonsense? Lin Chumo hurriedly explained.

"Do you not want to or don't dare?" The man asked rhetorically, "And how can this be considered a non-trivial thought?" Yue Ming is a young king, although he has some means, but I think he is not as good as you. If you ascend to the throne, maybe you will benefit the Demon Realm, and this is not a bad thing. ”

Lin Chumo listened to these words, and his heart moved. No one can remain true to the temptation of power. What's more, he was a proud and pretentious man, and the idea proposed by the man was really tempting.

"I know your parents died when you were young. They were the highest-ranking and powerful people here when they were alive, and now that they are under the Nine Springs, they also hope that you will also achieve something and carry forward the Lin family, don't you? The boy continued.

After being silent for a while, Lin Chumo raised his head and looked directly at the man: "Okay, from this moment on, we are friends." If you help me solve my immediate problems and make me a king, I will not lose your benefits in the future. He didn't want to worry about anything anymore, he used to be afraid of the power of the sound and the overworld, and now, he himself has to stand at such a height, and he is no longer afraid of anyone.

The man applauded approvingly, smiled and said, "Worthy of someone I value." I promise, as long as you listen to me, I will let you get what you want. ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Lin Chumo smiled and said, "Then let's ...... next"

"Don't worry, I've got a solution." The man said slowly.

He was in the Demon Realm, and he had seen too many people like Lin Chumo. And for such people, as long as they are tempted a little, they will naturally be used for their own purposes. Now, everything is under his control......
